Overview
A Bank Street best book of 2023!
Take a hike with this father-daughter adventure that's sure to inspire you to get outside.
When a young child reminds her dad about the hike they planned, her father is hesitant --To the tippy top? It's a great day to watch futbol (soccer). But as the two climb on, her enthusiasm is contagious. Filled with setbacks, surprises, and stunning views, this warm and humorous story highlights in vivid colors the bonding power of a shared experience. A list of creatures at the end prompts a second look for keen-eyed readers to make discoveries of their own.
Baptiste Paul and Jacqueline Alcántara (co-creators of The Field) have teamed up again! Baptiste's humorous and tender text, with a sprinkling of Creole words straight from the Pitons, and Jacqueline Alcántara's vibrant and evocative illustrations capture the wonder and emotions experienced on the trail and the special relationship between a parent and a child.
"The colorful illustrations work well on many levels...Paul and Alcántara...now lead viewers on a memorable excursion, captured in this vibrant picture book."
